Monarch butterflies from the eastern part of North America make the most

amazing journey in the insect world. Each year, this tiny creature travels up to
"
3,000 miles (4,800 kilometers) to its winter home in central Mexico. How can it fly
so far? And what is the purpose of its long and dangerous trip? Scientists still
#
don’t have an explanation.
For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange-and-black
２
$
butterflies came from every winter. Then in 1937, a scientist put the first wing
tags on some of the butterflies. He discovered that one butterfly started its journey
in Ontario, Canada. Four months and 1,870 miles later, it arrived in Mexico.
The length of the butterflies’ trip is only one part of the mystery. Another
３
amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same location in central
Mexico. In fact, Monarchs from all over the eastern part of North America spend
the winter at just a dozen places in Mexico. All of these places are within 300
%
square miles of each other! You can imagine how crowded the area is with
&
butterflies.
How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place? This is an
４
interesting question because only every fourth generation makes the trip south. In
other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great-greatgrandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.
Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each
５
generation of the family has a very different life. The first generation of Monarchs
is born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduces, and then
dies. On the trip north, two more generations are born, reproduce, and die. Each
of these generations of butterflies lives for only two to five weeks.
In the fall, the fourth generation of butterflies is born. Compared to its
６
'
parents, this generation has a longer life. It lives for about eight months. This
generation of butterflies makes the amazing journey to the winter home of its
great-great-grandparents. The butterflies spend the winter there, and in the spring
they reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the
next cycle.

tagged more than 75,000 butterflies. You can volunteer to help, too. Just go to the
Internet and look up the organization Monarch Watch.
